Rachel Francis- Attorney
I majored in Political Science at the University of Colorado, Boulder and went on to get a law degree from Northeastern University. I was employed at Edwards Angell, Palmer and Dodge in Boston where I was an associate attorney engaged in a broad-based general corporate transactional practice. After my first child was born, I left the law and made raising my family a priority. During these years, I was also actively involved in my community, volunteering in classrooms. Besides my family, I’m passionate about tennis and our three lovable dogs. With my children growing older, the time seemed right to resume my career. I joined Morizio Law Firm two years ago to pursue my love of the law and to help people navigate the complexities of workers’ compensation. In this field, I have the privilege of advocating for individuals who have been injured on the job, helping them secure the benefits and support they need to recover and move forward with their lives. Being able to make a tangible difference in people’s lives by guiding them through the legal process is incredibly rewarding.

Laura Carella – Paralegal
I graduated with a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Development and Family Studies from the University of Connecticut in 2014. In my last year of college, I worked for a law firm in Stamford and discovered my love for the legal field. For almost ten years, I specialized in the area of Family Law. I am excited to be a part of Morizio Law Firm and dive into the specialty of Workers’ Compensation. In my spare time, I like to go on family walks, read, and watch a show to unwind.
